Question:medium

Petrol (density $= 750 \, kg m^{-3}$) and diesel (density $= 850 \, kg m^{-3}$) enter into two identical venturimeters each with a velocity $10 ms^{-1}$ as shown in the figure. If $\Delta h_1$ is the difference in heights of petrol in the two vertical tubes of venturimeter A and if $\Delta h_2$ is the difference in heights of diesel in the two vertical tubes of the venturimeter B, then $\Delta h_1 : \Delta h_2 =$

Show Hint

In a venturimeter measuring the flow of a liquid using piezometer tubes (containing the same liquid), the reading $\Delta h$ (head difference) is independent of the liquid's density for a given velocity.
